    Foreign media accused by pro-government newspaper of “smearing” #Turkey’s Finance Minister’s presentation in Washington “to create a negative perception of the Turkish economy”. Oh and that paper is owned by the brother of the Finance Minister.pic.twitter.com/VQtoljrRVU

        Naturally it’s shocking to hear the truth which they are not accustomed to, with their local partisan media streaming copy-paste headlines about how amazing the economy is.

        Even the Turkish people don't believe the BS he talked about. Why would any foreign investor take him seriously?

        Pro-govt. or not, the points made by @ReutersWorld WERE actually hateful & focused only on the negative “comments” made by “3 of their imaginary attendees.” Western media can keep claiming to be objective all they want... Hypocrisy is real.
